Talking LED Turning Lights and Hyper Blinking Problem

Hello My G drivers,

This is my first post, I've been a fan G35s for a while and i finally have my own.

So I'm about to install LED fog lights and LED Turning lights to go with my HID kits, and some people say that after installing LED turning lights you will have problems such as hyper flashing, no flashing or bulb out warning after replacing turn signal bulbs with LED bulbs.

One 6 Ohm 50W Turn Signal LED Bulbs Load Resistors is required for each bulb.

I don't know if it is needed with my G35, anyone else have this problem before I buy a 6 Ohm 50W Turn Signal LED Bulbs Load Resistors?

You will need the resistors or they'll hyper blink.

You need load resistors if you're upgrading turn signals to LEDs on any car, the G is not an exception.

Yes they do,They get very hot..I have leds in my rear turn signals for now,Maybe you could do this..I saw this thread a while back ago..Its for a
07+ but you could use the same idea though this might help..

I used 6 ohm resistors for both my rear turn signal's, heres a little video.

I hate the whole load balancing thing... you're saving power off the electrical system with LEDs and then turning right around and wasting it with the heat generated on the load balancers
Why can't they just make an electronic blinker system that stays the same speed regardless of load?

My acura had a much easier and less dangerous fix. Just soldered on new resistors into the turn signal relay module. Just a little sodering, Im looking to swap my turns with switchbacks but need to find the relay first.

I haven't had a chance to look into it yet. I have found d some references to a "body control module" but haven't had a chance to look into it further.
